Most of the fields are common for all the function types. Of course some combinations aren't valid.
And there are few followup specific fields. The spec defines a single "NAN function" entity (for publish, subscribe and followup) which is represented in an SDA (service descriptor attribute).
This is what this struct tries to reflect.

Hmm..  A little bit nitpicky ;) but ok..
( I personally prefer to use "remove" to reflect removal from a list and del for "erase" like operations - here it does both)
